• Gettysburg (PA)
  • Na polach bitewnych ustawiono wiele pomników upamiętniających dowódców i jednostki wojskowe obu walczących stron.



    "When, sudden o'er the slumbering plain,

    Red flashed the battle's fiery rain;

    The volleying cannon shook again

    The hills of Pennsylvania!

    Beneath that curse of iron hail,

    That threshed the plain with flashing flail,

    Well might the stoutest soldier quail,

    In echoing Pennsylvania!

    But ah, the heaps of loyal slain!

    The bloody toil! the bitter pain!

    For those who shall not stand again

    In pleasant Pennsylvania!"
